This Slow Cooker Potato Soup is quick to throw together, and then it makes itself!
I usually associate soups with fall, but the weather this year has been so strange that I think I'm off a bit.  I know that half the country has been plummeted with snow.  Here in Idaho, we normally get a lot of snow, but our winter has been so mild!  And now the air has the same crisp feeling that is usually fall, so it felt like a soup day last week.

Potato soup is one of my husband's favorites.  But we've been working on houses, packing, and basically I just haven't had time to make great meals lately.  So I decided to make slow cooker potato, so it could make itself while I was painting.  I looked at quite a few recipes, but the recipe closest to what I did is from Teaspoon of Goodness.

  3. Potato soup is close to my heart because my mom made it for me. Always makes me feel good to see this old favorite!

  4. This looks delicious! I would top it with a dollop of sour cream, some shredded cheese, and crumbled bacon. I love making soup in the slow cooker, pinning to try.

    1. Thanks, Lizzy! Slow cooking is one of my favorite things in life-- nothing better than having dinner ready without actually cooking!
